Well, since this is really similar to the engine that you spec'ed for me (other than the stroker crank), I hope it makes 1,000,000 horsepower.  Since that ain't gonna happen, I'll go with 506.

I'll be dyno'ing a TFS headed 390 on the 14th of this month. 

Ok, so for the rules of the game....
Closest without going over on horsepower wins.  I will be posting UNCORRECTED
horsepower.  Winner gets some Lykins Motorsports schwag....probably a decal and a T-shirt or something.

Um, are you really going to be taking guesses for another week?

Oh. In that case, I'll take 666 horsepower. It's the number my abacus came up with after feeding in all the data. It's an old, very old, abacus. Of course, you realize if I lose, I will throw you to the wolves.

Uh, hold on here [tap tap tap tap etc]. Checking eBay, it seems the price of wolves has gone up ridiculously, so I may have to modify this threat. Let's see here...[more tapping]. OK BRENT, if I don't win, and I don't care if you have to TURBO it, I'm gonna throw you to the chihuahuas!!!

I used to employ ill-tempered sea bass for intimidation purposes when I lived near the California coast. I used to pick them off the pier, just like getting manual laborers at Home Depot. However, now that I am in Arizona, all they do is carp about the long bus ride. They get downright stinky about it. It just fries me that I can't find good bass anymore. Oh well.

Hopefully you will ship T-shirt to Canada should I be closest.

Looks like a very nice build!

Uncorrected numbers only, guys...

You can change your guess up until the dyno but there ain’t no way this thing will make 550-575 uncorrected horsepower.

I think the guesses are covered, but a question if you don't mind.

What are your typical correction factors?

thanks,
